R.A.W 1,987 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Which one?................. there's that many now gnash I haven't seen the draw but Ronnie is in a class of his own if you ask me . Selby aint a bad punt nor is the rest of the top 10 It's a hard one to call with the modern setup even the down and out players of old are making there way back and winning tournaments. your Man looks a right laugh though gnash ....................

marshman 7,758 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 I can't wait for Marco Fu against Mark king . Should be a good Fu King match ?. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
johnny boy68 11,726 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 He's a good player is Ding but its hard to see past O'Sullivan especially in the longer format like the Worlds, to be honest if I wasn't betting on Ronnie I'd personally have a punt on Selby or Robertson as they can grind a result out. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brigzy 1,298 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Heart says Docherty , but head says O'sullivan. Good to see Docherty come back from 3-0 to win today, but O'sullivan is the best in the world by far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good to see Docherty come back from 3-0 to win today, but O'sullivan is the best in the world by far. I couldnt work out why Ronnie is only ranked 30 odd.......but its because he doesnt go in for all the other competitions apparently.......so my theory was that he might be a bit rusty......and being that the chinky kid has won everything except the worlds i figured maybe its his year this year..............but when Ronnie gets in the groove its certainly hard to see past him.

Brigzy 1,298 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 (edited) I think Ron got in because he is the defending champ. He got into, and won the Masters on a wild card. He doesn't play enough ranking tournaments to be in the top 16, but he is still the best in the world and the major crowd puller so they can't afford to leave him out !

Ronnie picks and chooses. He doesn't play for the money or the glory any more (he says). Cos of this, I think his attitude is almost 'playing for the fun of it',so he saves his best performances for the biggest games, which makes him hard to beat. Ding has won lots of tournaments because he plays in them all - still making his money and reputation. Can't see anyone beating Ronnie, except maybe Selby, on his top day. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
clipo 871 Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 (edited) can only be Ronnie........mans in the form of his life and seems sorted in his head now to........that shot on the pink against robin hull was impossible to get on the black but he made it look so f*****g easy.......... whenever snookers on and were playing pool at home ill always have an hour or so on the snooker table in the back and it only baffles me more as to how these top players take they shots the take.........the game is sooo f*****g hard yet these make it look easy!!!!! like this by Ronnie last year............ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isO7IyEqMUU how the f**k is that even possible........... and then this by the man himself again............147 in 5min 20sec......fastest ever by far!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpeBugHSCnU imo that's the greatest individual effort at any sport in the world!!!! so yeah if your having a bet id put it on Ronnie lol just cant see him dropping his game at the min..........
